> As we develop algorithms that power Birdwatch — such as reputation and consensus systems

Consensus is the enemy of understanding. For topics where there is conflicting or poor evidence or that bear on the culture war, I do not want people voting on what is the consensus truth. I want to see all the evidence. We have enough problems with researchers not publishing uncomfortable data; I don't want the little that exists flagged because it conflicts with the average Twitter user's sensibilities.
>> The problem I think is that you are starting from the assumption that America had a uniting mythos that only recently fell apart, rather than America having had deep, vicious internal divides throughout its entire history that were sometimes temporary subordinated to even stronger shared opposition to external forces.

> It wasn't always this vicious, or this pervasive in its viciousness, in my lifetime.

In our & our parents lifetimes, we had the "even stronger shared opposition to external forces" of Cold War opposition to the Soviet Union to keep these divisions in check.

America's divides have been terribly vicious in the past (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeding_Kansas, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War), and some of the current things that divide us even have their roots in that era.
> Serious question...

To Oversimplify.

With a Fixed Yield, and an exact 100% increase in Transistor Density that translate to 50% smaller Die Size.

On a Wafer, that would equate to Double the amount Die you have. All of a sudden your profits increase dramatically.

5nm also have a better power curve so within the same clock speed you have lower energy usage. Hence you can push for higher performance if needed.

The first point of Uni Economics is important for the industry. If you have high enough volume, say hundreds Million of chips per year then it make sense to move to the next node for cost saving. If you have small volume or low margin chip then the Design Cost, which is the most expensive part of chip making, would not work to your benefits.

And it also depends on Wafer price, If 5nm is Double the Price of 7nm then in the above example your unit cost would be exactly the same.

The second point is important for CPUs, and other things that are increasingly computational expensive like WiFi 6 and 5G Modem. You want your Smartphone to last longer on battery so they work better on an energy efficient node.

So basically it is a Cost / Performance trade offs.
It is not wrong, it is rather correct. Speed of propagation in semiconductor materials is at most a third of speed of light in vacuum. So the distance travelled is rather limited for a signal. Also, a signal might have to traverse a few transistors or gates, so frequency in the 3GHz range does really limit processor sizes to the order of millimeters. You already said how to get around it: Pipelines, that limits the area a signal has to propagate. Also, one has to take care to make signals arrive early enough in the longest possible signal path as well as to distribute the clock in a way for it to arrive at aligned times everywhere, so you need a clock distribution net with known delays, etc. Chip timing is black art.
Uh, must be a cultural abyss here.

When someone says they are under a lot of stress, I take it as they work 70 hours weeks, or they found out they'll be a cripple or people they love are dying, or the chance that you'll be stabbed when going to work is quite high.

Never crossed my mind that enough people are under heavy stress by the examples you gave.
> The Sandbox isn’t about your privacy. It’s about Google’s bottom line. At the end of the day, Google is an advertising company that happens to make a browser.

It's worse than that. Google is an advertising company that makes a browser (63.38% of browsers globally) and mobile operating system (72.48% of phones globally) to vertically integrate, controlling your privacy choices. They're also trying their hand at PC's (ChromeOS, 1.72% globally). They invent technology across the stack, providing software for free or paid, and open sourcing some to commoditise the technology and to starve competition.

Actually, I've been working with getting grammars for binary data working in Raku. Development paused though when I had some trouble working with slangs.

I've gotten a bit better with them since then, but now I'm holding off for RakuAST, else I'd probably be rewriting a large amount of code for nothing (or have some major performance hits). You can see the proposal at https://gist.github.com/alabamenhu/2fec7a8f51a24091dc1b104a2... and a very early implementation at https://github.com/alabamenhu/BinexObjex

Definitely read over the proposal and comments, as my work with binary formats is a drop the bucket of ways to work with them, and I'm always interested in hearing how others would need/use such a feature.

As former competitive rower, can’t see switching to anything but C2, but I like the idea to expand the market to more. My biggest concern is that it tends to take 4-6 weeks to get comfortable with posture and just sitting on the machine for extended periods (the unfortunate challenge of the machine engaging so many muscles). For novices, this valley of death is where so many give up. For example, coming back in the fall always started with awkwardly slow pieces to get the “feel” again. Figure out how to make this fun, and I am a believer you can spread the sport!

BBC’s _More or Less_ did a bit on this. 70% more deadly (per person) would actually be better than 70% more infectious. Deaths increase linearly with deadliness of virus, but they increase exponentially with infectiousness.

Say the current mortality rate is 2% and each infected person passes on the disease to one other after a week, then stops being infectious. If 100 people have the virus in week 0, after 10 weeks 1000 people will have had the virus and 20 will have died.

Increase the death rate by 70% and you’d have 34 deaths instead. Increase the transmission rate by 70%, and you’d have 170 people newly infected in week 1, then 289 in week 2, totalling 285,000 infected people, of which 2% die. That’s now 570 deaths.

Obviously the numbers can all be changed somewhat depending on treatment, or whether you expect everyone to be infected at some point anyway, but the takeaway is that more deadly is not necessarily worse than more infectious.
Is there a similar website which gives accurate salaries for service managers / product managers/ verification managers?

Edit - also, I am surprised not to see Snapchat in the list until level 4. They definitely pay handsomely to entry level roles.
The speed of EM signal in copper is roughly 60% of the speed of light. You also have to account for timing jitter and wait until you are sure that everybody has the signal to prevent going out of sync.
This means that reliable distance from a single clock is just a fraction of what the speed of signal theoretically allows.

Clock distribution networks use local clocks to buffer and amplify the global clock but they take a significant amount of chip area and make the chip larger. Clock distribution circuitry draws a significant amount of power. It can be 30-40% of the power usage. You want to use them as little as possible.
> We could allow them to group sites together and say things like, "I want news sites that I visit to know that I'm looking to buy a specific brand of car, but I don't want any of the car dealership sites that I'm looking at to know what brand I want."

But this this isn't how ads work. Most ads are served by an ad network, such as doubleclick, which does realtime bidding on the ad space. The exchange of cookies is between you and the ad network, not you and the publisher hosting the ad or you and the advertiser who placed the ad.

Otherwise you make some great points and it seems that FLoC could well provide such tools for the user, because their profile is now rich and client-side instead of being stored on some tracker server and keyed by an opaque cookie id.
Let's be real here, WallStreetBets thinks it's about getting 2000-20000% gains in xx months - "sticking it" to some boomer short seller (their words) just sweetens the deal. It's a culture that revolves around pure gambling.
Google will track you more since adblockers will do nothing against this new practice.

So, again, this is not an improvement for users privacy.

What is the best chatops right now ? I dont see a lot of popularity around chatops. Its most usually some version of github based triggers.

Its funny that Github themselves uses chatops. I think that's a very nice take - especially for early stage startups. Anyone else use anything like it ?

I'm not asking for some strict formula, more some ability for people to describe what kinds of blogs they're after in more detail in a way that's flexible, but not overly fiddly to use.

I'd possibly put a shared blog under a similar category as the ones with weekly roundups. Which is exactly why I threw out that example - I don't want hard-and-fast Google-style rules, because I would expect that to work out about as well as hard-and-fast Google-style rules ever does.

I won't remember now what Youtubes I mean, but if I remember correctly the narrator really seem to meant that there were a lot of intentional references(possibly it was Ghost in the Shell).

Is it just something like "rule of cool" in that they just pick whatever seems 'fucked-up-cool' or is it a culture of going for intellectual hard topics? Are japanese writers just hardcore about philosophy and 'deep reality' topics in general?(again I could be talking crap because I don't haven't even played all the games, but geopolical perspectives in Metal Gear Solid also pretty original and based in actual dry research instead of the charicatures we mostly get from western industry).

> You've moved the goalposts from where you originally said EV's are "very expensive".

Very expensive for me, personally. I wouldn't pay the average US price of a car :-) Most of the world, including most Americans, seems to agree with me.

> As for used cars, I don't think there's enough data yet but I recall seeing an article where Teslas depreciated less than comparable ICE vehicles.

This is both good and bad. It's good, rationally, for TCO (but see my comment about TCO below), but it's bad because the second hand market price is higher, see my comment above :-)

> The fuel costs ways less per mile, what don't you believe about that?

I'm not saying I don't believe you, I'm saying that a big initial price is a much higher hurdle than you'd expect. People are not fully rational (otherwise the $9,99 psychological prices wouldn't work everywhere across the world) plus they don't fully/correctly factor in savings later. As they say: a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

I hate suggestion like this - most of the government involvement so far has been negative - don't wear masks, do wear masks and cloth masks are fine (they probably are not). We're going to cancel doctors license who go out of order in vaccine distribution (so now when the 65 year old drives their 75 year old partner in they can't both be vaccinated).

If anyone actually cared about this there is an EXISTING mechanism to get business to produce pretty much any quantity of anything you want. You pay them money. Instead the government is constantly canceling contracts, seizing products, stopping the sale of products for more than 10% more than historic prices etc.

ALL these steps REDUCE confidence in making a big / high risk investment.

My guess - if we looked at even existing use of the DPA - probably most stuff got made by folks not expert in making it and sat in a warehouse. I'm serious - I want to know how many ventilators made under DPA by rando companies are actually in use?

I've worked in govt contracting - the govt does not get "the best" producers to produce, in situations like this the hands reach out from the experts playing the govt contracting game. Not end of world normally, but with lives on the line some more standard approaches would be refreshing.
That's a mixed bag, as on one hand sure the number of dead goes down per 100, but then the number of folks infected goes up, thereby meaning the same number of dead possibly, or more people infected in hospitals.
To the user, though, this feels precisely like shouting into the void.
Maybe they shy away now, but I remember reading that banks used to view them as valid collateral for loans. From a 2019 NYT article (open a new browser container):

>They said some drivers were happy to use climbing medallion values as collateral to take out cash, and that those who sold their medallions at the height of the market made money.

>The lenders said they believed medallion values would keep increasing, as they almost always had. No one, they said, could have predicted Uber and Lyft would emerge to undercut the business.

Taboola and Outbrain are both purveyors of absolute garbage clickbait ads of the lowest quality.

The founders of those two companies are the modern day version of snake oil salesmen, and they know it. They probably don't care, since they're clearly motivated purely by greed, not by any sense of pride in what they're building.

I don't normally have opinions this strong about a company, but man do they take pride in insulting the intelligence of every user who sees their ads.

First of all: Thank you for your reply - very thoughtful, I double down on removing as much friction as possible - optimizing and making processes crystal clear.

Read also your other threads and all had great value.

To answer your inital question: The outcome is a context switch mitigator
How? 1. connect triggers - Audio and/or Visual (see research papers bellow) to a context - leveraging the natural event segmentation where our brain uses environmental triggers to automatically prepare information that we might need - common real life example the "doorway effect"
2. Connect that trigger to a workspace (reduce the amount of distractions from trigger to effective work) that tracks your productivity ( no exact formula yet - was thinking about app category, apm, usage time and focus switches)

I hope that will help me and maybe others 1. load memories about the context they are starting and dump info about old context as in the doorway effect. 2. provide less distractions and enough data to reflect on the process.

Currently have a very rough MacOS demo - hoping to get it to a shareable version in 4months.

fwiw these are similar complaints of high tier wireless noise cancelling headphones. Lack of wired fallback for the mic is common enough, I suspect it has to do with the bluetooth SOC on the device.

Sure, the SSN is used a lot but it's normally more for things on the level of bank accounts or signing up with a new employer, where there's some serious investment and need to validate your identity. When you enter it into a website, it'd better be for an important reason.

The CPF is something you might use at the grocery store when buying a piece of fruit in the hopes of winning 1000 BRL from the government for helping the store prove that it's paying its taxes. Go to SP and every shop will ask "CPF na nota?" True, you can just answer "não obrigado/obrigada" but from what I saw, most people give it out.

You just don't see that same level of usage in the USA. You're not going to wander into some store and have the shopkeeper ask for your SSN as soon as you get to the counter.

How do you measure that? Most likely this is some Apple propietary sheninangs so all bets are off. They are probably limiting things in software for reasons.

It is highly unlikely to be related to the BT version itself. There have been no bandwidth improvements to classic Bluetooth for decades. And Apple is unlikely to use LE Audio since BT 4.0 didn't had the required bandwidth for even full duplex 8kHz.
The current players are comfortably entrenched. Thankfully China does not allow them to operate there. It gives us some hope that new players will form and become competitive like TikTok. Google and friends are only beholden to their stock holders.
